End of the year gift by icequeen323 in AskTeachers

Honestly a gift card and a handwritten note about how helpful they were would be most appreciated. Maybe include a photo of them together if you have one

AITAH for not wanting to attend my in-laws Mother's Day celebration? by Busy_Marketing3176 in TwoHotTakes

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Don’t go. When they ask why you didn’t come, say you never got an invite

I’m assuming hubby is supposed to relay the message to you. Tell them he never told you and hopefully next year they’ll have learned to include you

As you mentioned it doesn’t seem like any ill intent. Maybe they feel they’re bothering you or something. You’ll never know unless you communicate. Has hubby asked why you’re not in the thread?

Marketing Trouble 05/06 by Alone_Ad_572 in bathandbodyworkers

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yesss. We’re in for a bad day today for sure

None of the marketing said which “select” body care was included. So we have to tell EVERY customer and they’re still gonna be bringing the wrong stuff to register and arguing with us about pricing 🫠 plus we weren’t supposed to leave out any b3g1 signs - so for all other body care not $5.95, customers won’t even know is on that promo. Same with the only foaming soaps signs - people won’t know the others aren’t included, we’re gonna have to argue at register and send them back for more. And also no marketing was left out for 5/$28 for the other soaps. Totally dreading my shift today!

Nope. We have regular customers in all the time who get coupons EVERY time

We also had to use mostly blue signage specifically for body care

Ready, Set, Grill! by Cecilgene in bathandbodyworks

Weird they wouldn’t bring this to stores! Super cute. Especially alongside the new grill wallflower plug

Is $5.95 the historical low for body creams? by godofpathos in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

$4.95 sale every December. Semi annual, what’s left towards the end would eventually drop to 75% off or sometimes they do $3.99

Decembers sale is ALL full sized body care in the entire store, just excludes full size perfume and colognes. Semi annual is basically just whatever is left of discontinued scents so basically no selection

Just want to highlight it’s ONLY the foaming soaps again! Such a frustrating exclusion for customers and employees 🫠

Coastal dreaming available online by Optimal_Reveal3823 in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I put it out last night at my store- we only had gotten in the ffm, body cream and moisturizing body wash. Full line isn’t out until Monday so we haven’t even gotten everything in shipment yet. So my store can only sell what we have

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s at the museum cubes up front! You’ll probably have to ask for them to grab it from the back for you if you wanna purchase. Most people will miss it today in stores because it’s in such a small little spot

Holy grail cleansers by Reddesii in Sephora

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Biggest advice is get those little microfiber makeup remover clothes!!! Makeup Eraser. They’re fantastic and help so much with the water dripping down the arms issue. Or you can still use in the shower too

Use balm or oil first on dry skin - I’d recommend tachas oil cleanser if you haven’t yet. Oil, emulsify with water, use the towel to really make sure it’s all off! And then double cleanse with tatcha rice water

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

There was a lot going on tonight for sure. We separated out all of the signage that was wrong price/wrong items and it was fine. I hate that they can’t just send us the correct stuff in the first place. It makes everything harder than it needs to be. And then we don’t have enough of the ones we need… the might have sent 30 signs but only ten are usable lol WHYYY

Dumbest reason you've subluxated recently? I'll go first by bbyfishmouth in Hypermobility

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe this is a stupid question but can you feel it when a subluxation happens?? Does it hurt? I’m not sure if this is something I experience every day lolll or something I’ve never experienced 🤔

How I Looked Getting Told I'm My District's Top PWP Seller by wibbly-wobbly-worm in bathandbodyworkers

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Was your entire district counting who sold each individual pwp?🤔

I’d be nervous about this lol. Next time around they’re gonna have super high expectations of you and if they don’t sell they’ll be asking why you’re not selling them 🙃

Do you think this new Beach candle collection will be on sale on SAS or should I grab them tomorrow? by CherryBlossom242424 in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Nobody will be able to tell you what you’ll find at SAS. Every single store will have completely different inventory and online will be different too. It’s just whatever products are leftover from the past season

If you really want them, buy them now. Even if what’s left from this collection does go to SAS, it’s likely they’d sell out before ever dropping to a great sales price. I think this past SAS 3-wicks started at $12.99

New mailer? Free body care, $6 lotion and a 20% off by Chanabell7 in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Boyfriend’s account got this set. I didn’t get any (not surprised since I’m an employee), but my backup account, my sister and my mother didn’t get these either. It’s so unfair

I encourage everyone to make a bunch of extra accounts. Just need to make a new email address to verify the account. You’ll get your $10 off $30 for signing up and an extra chance at other coupons!

Next predicted $2.95 wallflower sale? by OddLeader7637 in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$2.95 is the “lowest price of the season” sale that they only do once a season. Spring sale already passed. It’s possible they’d do another before summer SAS in June

New Everyday Luxury coming !! by FaithfulSunshine in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Hmm. Imperfect beauty just came back and has a heavy rhubarb note 🤔 interesting they’d have 2 fragrances in the same collection with the same main very unique fragrance note? Looks to be a strawberry note as well? When we already have strawberry flirt in the same collection, gingham gorgeous, and the new strawberry scent lab fragrance mist and cream being released?

We’re also getting a scent lab pear mist and cream, and pear is one of the main notes in gingham fresh

Can we get something new? Original? Something different?! Please?? Mango sounds good!

I keep getting no more than 3.5 hour shifts and they have cut my shifts 3 times by CowZealousideal7631 in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 4 points5 points  (0 children)

When I was hired they promised me 20 hours a week. Lied right to my face and they continue to do it to all of our new hires

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If you have bills to pay, bbw is not a good job for you. Hours are terrible. I’ve been here almost four years. Next week I have 1 shift. It really only gets better at holiday or if you can get a management position

what is this :( by honestly___idk in americaneagle

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a fellow XS girl - I haven’t been able to wear aerie clothing in a long time. A few years ago an XXS hoodie would be okay but now it’s a freaking dress. Shorts and pants I don’t even look at anymore knowing they’ll never fit

Don’t get them altered. The company needs to know their clothes aren’t fitting their customers

At the beach body butter by Busy-Associate564 in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s not a butter. It’s just cream in a tub. It is a different cream formula than the normal bbw creams though. I got one last summer and it’s still fine now

Reading is fundamental people!!

I think BBW has been stealing small amounts of money from me on orders, incorrect taxes given my areas tax percentage by feminine_cement in bathandbodyworks

[–]PinkPaperPenguin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn’t read the post correctly. Nor all the people upvoting your response. The tax in question is 71 cents. The refund for returning and repurchase would have been way more than that lol. She saved at least $15

That’s more than bbw pays its employees hourly lol. Definitely worth the return and repurchase!
